    Absolutely beautiful crisp morning. I quickly split some rounds of red oak that I had left in the woods a few weeks ago, only 9 rounds medium sized.

    I hauled out 3 loads......

    This was an emergency GIBIR procedure- rot was close.....

    Below is hickory that was previously quartered that I split today and stacked with Dawn's help!

    Thx guys!

    My IS- maybe a year was shaved off, but it got stacked in future year's stacks.

    Nice job! Stacks are coming along nicely and that oak has plenty of life left to it.... :):)

    I need to mow today before it rains, trimmed a tree and cleaned out a gutter that was plugged up... Nothing worth taking pictures about.

    Agreed! The wind really picked up, so I moved into high gear to bring everything out, and finish splitting in the safer harbor called the yard.
